Legal Mistakes that Kill Acquisitions with Fareed Kaisani
In this episode of the M&A Launchpad Podcast, hosts Casey Minshew and Feras Moussa sit down with Fareed Kaisani of MW Law to discuss the legal side of buying businesses and the costly mistakes that can derail acquisitions. Fareed shares insights from working on lower middle market deals ranging from SBA-funded acquisitions to private equity rollups, including why buyers should engage counsel early, how working capital disputes kill deals, and why trying to save money on legal or QoE support can backfire.
In this podcast episode, we discuss:
• Why buyers should engage experienced M&A counsel before signing an LOI
• How working capital, holdbacks, escrows, and seller notes impact transactions
• The legal and financial mistakes that commonly blow up deals before closing
• Why AI-generated LOIs and “cheap” legal advice can create major problems for buyers
